Chapter 16

Alex

Is this really happening? I wonder as Alonzo leans against me and pushes me down on the desk. We’re still locked in a deep kiss, and I don’t want to let go.

When our lips finally part, his head goes to my neck. His soft lips and warm breath on my neck send a warm shiver down my body.

He slides his legs between mine, propping them open on the desk. A rough hand brushes up my thigh until it settles on my center, palming my crotch with a heavy thumb pressed against my clit.

Fuck.

I can feel his lips curl into a smile against my neck when his thumb begins to swirl over my clit.

He brings his face back up to mine. His dark eyes stare into mine like a hungry animal ready to devour me whole. Our lips connect again as the pressure on my clit increases.

With a whimper, I wrap an arm around his head and lean back on the desk, bringing him down with me. With my other hand, I trace the muscles on the hand that’s playing with my clit.

I want him so fucking bad.

Without warning, he escapes my grip and towers over me, looking down at me with darkened eyes. His chest rises and falls with heavy breaths. A beat passes before he reaches for my shorts and pulls them down, revealing my white lace panties.

His eyes fall between my legs. He mutters a soft fuck before licking his bottom lip.

My chest burns with desire. Alonzo looks so handsome and hot towering over me, with his tatted arms bulging out of his muscle shirt.

I feel a flutter in my lower stomach, and a sudden hunger falls over me. My pussy craves his cock. I want to get up and pull his pants down and take him all in until we both come together. Let the people outside hear. I don’t care.

Alex, what are you thinking? a voice in the back of my head asks. I have to seduce him, not the other way around. But a second, more primal voice chimes in, louder than the first. What difference does it make if you enjoy it? It’s only a physical attraction .

The second voice is right. I can seduce him and have some fun along the way. It won’t go beyond that. I won’t let it.

Ever since I became preoccupied with Mom’s medical expenses on top of my college life, I haven’t had a chance to meet guys and get laid. Now there’s a hot man who desires me. And honestly, the feeling is mutual. So who cares if I’m having a little fun? It won’t escalate higher than this.

Alonzo’s hands trace the outline of my panties. His rough fingers tingle on my soft skin, pushing both voices out of my head and leaving me with my carnal desires.

With the voices in my head gone, I can now hear my breathing. It’s slow and full of anticipation of what is going to happen next. What I want to happen next.

Alonzo slides a finger into my panties, pulls them down to my legs, and scoops them off. He smiles at me before tossing them on the desk next to me.

His eyes fall between my legs again.

“Fuck, Alex. You’re already wet for me.”

His head dips between my legs. Soft lips peck at my inner thigh, slowly making their way to my upper leg. They kiss and nibble at the areas around my aching pussy but don’t touch the lips or the clit.

His lips curl into a grin against my skin. Then his eyes rise and meet mine. I immediately understand what’s going on. This man is teasing me!

I bury my fingers into his thick black hair and push his head lower between my legs. In an instant, his hot tongue traces the length of my pussy lips, from top to bottom, then up again until it lands on my clit.

He swirls his tongue over my nob, sending intense shivers to the rest of my body. The hairs on the back of my neck rise with each successive shiver.

“Oh my god!” I say, just as footsteps pass by the door. My hand falls on my lips when I remember people are standing a few feet outside Alonzo’s office.

“ Que rico ,” Alonzo mutters under his breath. “You taste so fucking good, Alex.”

One of my hands is still in his hair. He seems comfortable with it, so I keep it there, guiding his head and tongue over my pussy. He started me up, and now he has to finish.

Two large fingers slide into my pussy. I’m already so wet that they slide right in. Alonzo pushes them deep and curls them up, finding my G-spot. He rubs it as his tongue still works on my clit. Every now and then, he gently suckles it and causes my legs to twitch.

Pressure builds between my thighs each time his tongue passes over my sensitive clit. I’m ready to burst for him.

“Fuck,” he growls. “Come for me, Alex.”

A loud moan escapes my lips. I release his hair and cover my mouth with both hands, struggling to keep myself from screaming.

The fact that the student receptionist and other professors are walking outside his office turns me on even more. I have never done anything like this before. It’s exciting.

A soft fuck escapes between my fingers as my back involuntarily arches, and my legs shudder against a burst of pleasure. Warm waves spread from my core to the rest of my body as I try to catch my breath.

Oh God .

Alonzo’s tongue dips between my folds, cleaning me up. My skin feels so sensitive that every lick causes my legs to twitch under his touch. Licking his outer lips, he gets up and smiles.

“Unfortunately, that’s all the time we have, Ms. Walker,” he says. He grabs his button-up shirt from the hanger and slides it on. “I have a staff meeting that I’m already running late to. But it was worth it.”

“Okay,” I say, slightly disappointed that we have to end it here for now. I sit up on the desk and place my hands over my legs, covering myself up as if Alonzo hadn’t had his face all up in there a few minutes ago.

He walks in front of me and lifts my face with a gentle finger. “What are you doing this weekend? If you stop by my place, I can give you another…oral exam.”

“I’m busy this weekend,” I giggle. Oral exam .

Something wet touches my fingertips, and I look between my legs in shock. My face burns red when I realize I’m sitting on a stack of documents with wet stains. “Oh my god! I am so sorry.”

“Don’t be,” he says. “I can just reprint those.”

This is so embarrassing.

I grab my panties from the desk and slide them back on.

“I’d love to take those off again,” Alonzo smirks. “When will that be?”

“I’m busy this weekend,” I say again. “And there’s this party I’m supposed to attend tomorrow. What about—”

“What party?” he asks.

“Just some college party. Isabella invited me. I promised I would go...”

He looks at me as if he doesn’t know who I’m talking about.

“Isabella,” I say. “The redhead who sits next to me in class?”

“Oh, sure,” he says. “Who else is going to be there?”

“I don’t know,” I say, hopping off his desk to grab my shorts from the floor. “I should get going, but I’m free tonight.”

I just had the best orgasm in a long time, maybe even in my entire life. I’m no longer ashamed to admit that I want more.

Alonzo sighs. “I have something tonight. I guess I’ll see you when I see you. Don’t forget to tell Jacob you’re no longer working at The Den.”

“But—” I start before he cuts me off.

“No excuses, Alex. Get it done.”

???

A few hours later, I’m at my apartment, thinking about Alonzo’s lips on mine, and his tongue on my clit. Heat pools between my legs when I remember how he suckled at my clit while his fingers rubbed my G-spot.

But the feeling doesn’t last long. It’s replaced by a dark pit in my lower stomach when I remember I need to call Jacob and tell him I’m quitting. He’s not going to be happy, but I need to do it so Alonzo doesn’t suspect something.

With a heavy sigh, I grab my phone to dial Jacob. The phone rings twice before he answers.

“Hey, sweetheart,” he says. “Please tell me you called to tell me you’re feeling better. I miss those sexy legs and that tight ass.”

Gross .

“About that,” I start. “Alonzo told me to quit. He doesn’t want me working at The Den.”

I don’t know what else to say that won’t anger Jacob, so I give him time to respond so I can gauge his reaction. The one thing I know for sure is that there’s no way in hell I’m going to tell him about the fifty grand Alonzo gave me.

A beat passes before Jacob speaks. “He’s falling for you faster than I thought. Can’t say I blame the son of a bitch.”

“I doubt it,” I say in genuine disbelief.

“Oh please, just look at you. I’m sure that wetback loves your tits as much as I do,” Jacob says. “I can’t wait to have them in my palms again soon.”

The thought of Jacob putting his hands on me again makes me nauseous.

“That’s just lust,” I say. “I won’t get him to trust me with lust alone. And I’m not sure if I can get him to have feelings for me.”

Having somebody like Alonzo fall for me, truly fall for me, feels outside the realm of possibility, especially now that I’ve gotten closer to him. It’s ironic, but the closer I get to him, the more he feels like an other-worldly being. And I’m just some college girl…

“Can’t you see the obvious? He’s already getting there. He doesn’t want you at The Den because he’s jealous of the reapers watching you dance.”

“I don’t know,” I say, still unconvinced. I’m just another random fling. Still, I want to leave The Den behind, so I play along with Jacob’s absurd idea. “But if it’s true, then I have to quit to keep him happy.”

“No, fuck that,” he says. “You are mine. I say you keep working.”

I’m not yours, you piece of human garbage .

“If I don’t quit, he may get suspicious,” I try to reason with Jacob. “He might think we are up to something.”

“He can think whatever he wants, but you are staying with me.”

“No. If you want him to trust me, I need to do what he says. If he tells me to quit, I have to quit. Otherwise…”

“Jesus Christ,” Jacob says. “Even if you quit, what are you going to live on? Who’s gonna take care of your sweet mother’s bills?”

You don’t give a shit about my mom , is what I want to say. But I hold my tongue.

“I’m not sure,” I lie. “But I can test your idea. If Alonzo is falling for me, maybe I can get him to lend me some money. That should be enough to keep me afloat until we rob him.”

Jacob remains quiet.

“Fine,” he says. I can tell he’s upset. “You can quit, but you’re still mine. Don’t forget that. You will come and visit me whenever I ask you to.”

“Okay,” I say.

There is no way in hell I’m going to sleep with Jacob again.

I already won a victory tonight by quitting The Den. I’m not going to push my luck any further. I’ll let future Alex deal with Jacob when he’s in a better mood.

Who knows what he’s capable of when he’s angry?
